I'm sick of misanthropes

I'm really beginning to hate the online misanthrope community. I was initially more empathetic to them, considering how vile the internet can be. However, after a while, I noticed how ubiquitous they were around the internet and how unavoidable their presence is. Every single place on the internet (except for some religious forums) have to be flooded with people whining about how they think humans suck and should all die. Not to mention they tend to blow all the bad things of humanity out of proportion and act like they're so unbelievably smart and better than everyone simply because they hate humans. They use arguments are terribly flawed and unscientific (ex. "Humans are the only animals that kill their own kind" when this has been documented in other animals - for reasons other than self-defense or food furthermore) and I can barely even begin to argue with them since they act so narcissistic. And clearly by the way they are talking they are biased and only paying attention to the bad news.

To make an analogy about how I feel about them, recall if you have played The Sims and had the Tragic Clown appear in your home. Initially he seems like a hurt person and you need to comfort him, but nothing works and then he begins to act unbelievably obnoxious, and you can't escape him no matter where you go (except to work).

I'm not talking about everyone with misanthropic tendencies, but I'm talking about the community. Is it normal to feel this way now?

    I hate misanthropes so much that I wish humans would all die or something.

    Wait, but if most people on the internet are misanthropes, and you hate them all, doesn't that make you a misanthrope?

    • I didn't say "I hate all misanthropes". I simply said I hated the "online misanthrope community". This has nothing to do with hating every single last misanthrope online.

    So you would praise the human race for exterminating so many other species, filling the air and water with toxins and generally making an ugly mess of this once beautiful planet? All so a few can make obscene amounts of money and the rest of us can survive until we kill ourselves off in one way or another.
    Bravo us. Yeah, that's it; cheer for humanity.

    • While it is true that humans are changing the planet at an accelerating rate, it seems like you lack a basic understanding of Earth's geological, chemical and biological history. It wasn't always like Bambi prior to human existence. In fact, well over 95% of all species that ever existed went extinct before humans even existed, and species have been wiping out other species ever since life even began. Also, if humans are making the earth "ugly" by adding pollutants, then cyanobacteria had made Medusa by adding tons of oxygen to the atmosphere 2.4 billion years ago (this event was a MASS extinction event).

    Misanthropes are also sick of the happy clapping sheep who blow what little good there's in life out of proportion so meh.
